Chapter 133: Crystal World

After merging the Rod of Judgment into his body, Hu Feng possessed an aura of Judgment. Wherever he went, Knights and Nuns bowed respectfully in greeting.

Compared to Monasteries in other places, the Monastery inside Glory Castle was more than ten times larger in both area and scale. Not to mention Faith-guarding Knights, even ordinary Divine Officials could not walk around freely; violators would be killed on the spot. But this prohibition had no binding force on a Judgment Divine Official. Relying on the Rod of Judgment in his hand, Hu Feng soon walked majestically around the Monastery under the pretext of inspection, openly recording the guards and terrain of various places.

A Judgment Divine Official could directly command a Legion of Faith-guarding Knights. Although time was short, soon, more than a hundred elite Faith-guarding Knights gathered outside the courtyard where Hu Feng lived, with Randolph, a Sword Saint, as the Commander, responsible for Hu Feng’s safety. Just like that, an evil Lich imperceptibly infiltrated the high levels of the Divine Court and the Monastery step by step.

In the early morning, the Monastery was quiet. Except for the patrolling Faith-guarding Knights, people had fallen asleep. Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in the Monastery, shrouded in a mass of black mist. Brushing past the ground with a wisp of gloomy wind, it vanished without a trace after a few leaps.

“My Lord?”

Seeing Hu Feng suddenly appear in front of her bed, Nun Bella cried out, then immediately fell silent, fearing to wake Cinia who was sleeping next door.

According to the news inadvertently revealed by the Nuns, she would soon go with Cinia through a Teleportation Array to the distant Bright Summit. Originally, she was secretly worrying about how to contact her master, Hu Feng, in the future. She didn’t expect him to sneak in so quickly.

“Bella, this is the cultivation method for the Grand Puppet Technique and the Great Teleportation Technique. From now on, you must seize the time to cultivate. If there is any problem, you can send a Soul call. No matter where you are, I can appear instantly!”

Hu Feng did not hesitate to consume his Origin Power to leave a seed of cultivation inside Nun Bella.

The Saintess nurturing plan could not be completed without Bella; she was a key piece. She had the scheming mind, but her strength was far from enough. Many times, conspiracies and tricks were indispensable, but strength was the decisive factor. Otherwise, how could they eliminate Cinia’s future competitors?

“Thank you, My Lord!”

Sensing the power Hu Feng transmitted, Bella bowed respectfully.

“Good, very good. Then thank your master properly!”

Hu Feng smiled. With a gentle pull of his right hand, Bella’s thin nightgown fluttered to the ground with the wind, revealing her curvy body. Grabbing her hair, he slowly pressed her holy-looking face down.

“My Lord, no, not here…”

Bella panicked, her heart pounding like a deer.

Unlike ordinary places, this courtyard was a Settlement for many Candidate Saintesses and was heavily guarded. The rooms above, below, and to the sides were all occupied. At this quiet moment, the thin walls could not block that suppressed sound at all. Through the window, one could even see the figures of Faith-guarding Knights walking back and forth. If they were careless, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Bella, if I am not afraid, what are you afraid of? Life is short, enjoy the joy of life!”

The more dangerous the place, the more exciting it was. Hu Feng gave an evil smile, carried the terrified Bella to the window side, and enjoyed himself to the fullest. Perhaps because he had inherited the Soul Imprint of the Lich King Ovisis, the more exciting and evil it was, the faster the Magic Power and Soul Power in his body circulated. As a trace of evil aura seeped in, Bella’s body trembled uncontrollably, triggering her body’s instincts, unable to stop!

…

After leaving the courtyard where the Nuns lived, Hu Feng was not exhausted at all; instead, he was in high spirits. After thinking for a while, he walked openly towards the Crystal High Tower. Relying on the fiery red Divine Official robe and the majestic Rod of Judgment, he passed unimpeded all the way. After continuously climbing to the eighth floor, he arrived at the last checkpoint.

In front of the tightly closed gate, five white-bearded old men sat cross-legged, led by the old man in the center, motionless like five stone sculptures. The energy fluctuations in their bodies were unfathomable. A trace of Divine Sense penetrated them, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea; they had at least cultivated to the Demi-god Realm. Especially the old man in the center, who actually held a long sword with a compelling aura. Before even getting close, a breath of doomsday and plane collapse rushed towards him.

Blade of Doomsday?

Hu Feng was shocked in his heart, quickly understanding the power of this long sword.

Bright Summit, Black Horn, War Soul Hall, and Purgatory City, these Four Great Cities each possessed a Divine Artifact to suppress their sect, with infinite power. The Blade of Doomsday in the old man’s hand before him was obviously not the genuine article, but even if it was a fake replica, its attack power far exceeded ordinary treasures!

“Stop!”

The old man in the center suddenly opened his eyes, his face cold. Suddenly, wisps of sharp Killing Intent appeared in the air, firmly locking onto Hu Feng’s Soul Fluctuation. It left no doubt that if he took another half step forward, he would immediately suffer a mountainous critical strike.

“My Lords, I need the power of the Holy Bead, immense power!”

Hu Feng made no secret of his purpose and took out the majestic Rod of Judgment. “The Wasteland is becoming increasingly turbulent. As a Judgment Divine Official, I need immense power to break through to the Holy Step at the fastest speed. The power that races like the Ghost Race, Demon, and Titan have infiltrated into the Wasteland is growing stronger. I have already discovered the messengers of Old Ancestor Bone Demon several times. There is no more time to wait!”

Hu Feng spoke with awe-inspiring righteousness, mixing truth and lies, using the fierce reputation of Old Ancestor Bone Demon, a Great Demon Head. Sure enough, hearing him say this, the expressions of the several old men changed, but they still had no intention of letting him pass.

“No, according to the seventy-third law of the Divine Court, no one is allowed to approach the Holy Bead directly!”

The old man in the center spoke in an icy tone. Guarding the Holy Bead was his mission and responsibility. Even with a handwritten order from Moss, the Great Divine Official, he would not let anyone pass. The Holy Bead on the Crystal High Tower was the source of power for the Monastery and even the entire Glory Castle; no mistake could be made.

“I cannot approach, but what about an Angel, a Holy Angel descending from the Divine Kingdom?”

Seeing that the old fellows had no room for negotiation, Hu Feng did not give up and summoned the Holy Angel Taliana who was cultivating in the Prime Realm. Facing a powerful Demi-god Stronger, he was no match at all, but if Taliana the Holy Angel recovered to her peak period, it would be different.

Sixteenth Step Holy Angel?

Looking at Taliana who suddenly appeared, the several old men were greatly surprised.

Holy and noble Angels were the messengers of the God of Light and the guardians of the Divine Court. There were many Fourteenth Step Angels, but Fifteenth Step Archangels were rare even in the holy land of Bright Summit, let alone Sixteenth Step Holy Angels. In history, the descent of almost every Holy Angel carried a supreme oracle.

A Judgment Divine Official personally guarded by a Sixteenth Step Holy Angel, what did this mean?

Glancing at each other, the several white-bearded old men all saw the shock in the others’ eyes. After pondering for a moment, the old man in the center lightly waved his right hand, and the tightly closed gate behind him cracked open. “My Lord, according to the laws of the Divine Court, you cannot enter personally. However, this Holy Angel is not within the constraints of the law, please!”

“Alright, thank you, my Lords!”

Hu Feng winked, watching the figure of the Holy Angel Taliana disappear, then turned and left, returning to his own courtyard to meditate quietly. Although he could not directly snatch the Holy Bead on the Crystal High Tower, it was enough to let Taliana approach and meditate to force out the potent poison in her body. When the time was ripe, it would not be too late to plan to snatch the Holy Bead!

Under concentrated meditation, the night passed quickly.

Early the next morning, Hu Feng took Randolph and several personal guards out of the Monastery gate, wandering around the massive Glory Castle.

As the base of the Divine Court in the Wasteland, Glory Castle was extremely lively, with all kinds of things available, and Crystal Coins circulating outside the Wasteland could be used directly. As long as one had enough Crystal Coins, let alone buying a batch of equipment, even forming a Legion was no problem.

Passing by a weapon shop, Hu Feng went in and looked around. There were many exquisitely crafted weapons, but unfortunately, none of them were eye-catching.

“My Lord, there are only some common items here. If you want to buy real treasures, you can attend our auction. Today, we happen to be auctioning a top-grade treasure, a semi-plane known as the Crystal World!” Seeing the distinctive Judgment Divine Official robe on Hu Feng, the attendant in the weapon shop was unprecedentedly respectful.

A Judgment Divine Official, whether in Glory Castle or the entire Sunset Wasteland, had an extremely high status. If he could cling to a powerful Judgment Divine Official, his future would be limitless.

Semi-plane?

Hu Feng’s eyes lit up. He had seen many powerful treasures, but he had never seen what a semi-plane looked like. He was excited in his heart, but his face remained calm. “Oh, what is your name?”

“Sanchez!”

Hearing Hu Feng say this, the quick-witted attendant was very excited, speaking while bowing respectfully.

“Alright, lead the way!”

Hu Feng ordered in a low voice, put away the Rod of Judgment, walked to a deserted corner, and quickly changed into a new outfit, disguising himself as an ordinary Demon Hunter. Seeing his attire, the quick-witted attendant Sanchez understood and kept his identity secret. Under his lead, everyone arrived at a massive underground building. After passing through layers of guards, they came to a magnificently decorated auction hall and sat down in a tightly covered private room.

“My Lord, if you need anything, please just say so!” Sanchez lowered his head and smiled, wishing he could dig out his heart for Hu Feng, this powerful Judgment Divine Official.

“Oh, you can solve any problem?”

Looking at the currying Sanchez, Hu Feng smiled evilly. “I just arrived at Glory Castle and didn’t bring many Crystal Coins. How about this? You help me buy that Crystal World later. I’ll leave this arduous task to you!”

“What… My Lord, this… I…”

The usually clever Sanchez was stunned, stuttering so much he couldn’t speak.

A priceless semi-plane, even if he were sold to the Western Desert to dig mines, he couldn’t produce that many Crystal Coins.
